Day 21 - Embrace God
Scripture focus: I call Heaven and Earth to witness against you today: I place before you Life and Death, Blessing and Curse. Choose life so that you and your children will live. And love GOD, your God, listening obediently to him, firmly embracing him. Deuteronomy 30:20 The Message
We have a decision to make each moment – choose life or choose death, choose blessing or choose curses. We choose life when we decide to spend each day firmly embracing God. We give God a holy hug when we listen to him, and step as he speaks. So listen while I remind you of why you should consider giving God a hug. God created us with intrinsic value. We’re his kid. He set us apart. He desires for us an abundant life. We choose life and blessing when we are motivated by this love of God to seek to grow and change. We choose death and curse when we listen to the committee in our head, and live as if we serve a distant, harsh, punishing God. Judging others is choosing death. Accepting self and others is a blessing. May you feel God’s loving arms of acceptance around you today – and may it inspire to reach for your God-bestowed promise and potential.
